Hong Kong court adjourns Malawian woman drug trafficker case to January

A court in Hong Kong has adjourned to January a case involving 29-year-old Estina Mukasera who faces a death sentence for drug trafficking.

Estina Mikasera

Robert Mkwezalamba, chairman of Human Rights Defenders Coalition said she Mukasera appeared before the court on December 3 and this time there was a Malawian translator for her.

“It is pleasing to note that Malawi Foreign office in Beijing attended the sessions and that Estina was provided with a defense lawyer by the Hing Kong administration,” said Mkwezalamba.

Mkwezalamba says said the Human Rights Consultative Committee (HRCC) where he is executive director,  continues to commend the parliamentary committee on International Relations, ministry of Foreign Affairs, Father John Wotherspoon and all that are playing various roles to secure a fair trial and possible repatriation of her back home.

“Our concern as HRCC, besides lobbying for her return, is to use her case to show case how grave trafficking in persons and banned substances has penetrated our society-hence we would like a united action to ensure that we get rid of this vice,” said Mkwezalamba.

He said HRCC is collaborating with family, police and other national organs to get to the bottom of the matter and have the master minders face justice

  1. Mmati atani iyeyu pamene kuno ndalama akungoba andalewa? Abwele kuno milomo imeneyi imayamwa bwino ndodo iya!

  2. There was noone from Malawi foreign office. The translator is a lady Malawian professional working in Hong Kong. The alleged trafficker was speaking to her lawyer in English but when the Malawian (her initials are EM) spoke to her in Chichewa she cried continuously for 5 minutes whereupon the proceedings were adjourned to next year. These are the facts.

  3. Estina is one of us (Malawian). If we did not do well with other similar cases, let this be the starting point & the emphasis is not to encourage but to transform. Mr Robert Mkwezalamba & your colleagues, you have my vote. “amene sanachimwepo……)

  4. Chemwa munangoziyamba izi. they will marinate you in chilli, ginger , garlic and soy sauce … l bet you will taste nice chemwa a kudya. Sorry! !!!!!

  5. We need the tax- money to help some people who need medical attention in India—This drugtrafficker slay queen would have come back to Malawi just to hurt married women with her drug money! Let her perish in hong kong prison–

  6. Koma dziko la Malawi ndi lokondela. There people who were detained at Lindela in SA for just trying to earn a honest leaving but our government is doing nothing. This is a criminal sent to China by Nigerians and we are wasting all the resources. I wonder who is behind this publicity.

  7. Amabungwe muthandizeni azibwera ku Malawi tikwatire ife. Bola wama drug yu ndiokongola kusiyana ndi zomwe tikuona m’Likuni ndi m’Chigwiri mu.

  8. Mikasera? Which part of Malawi is she from?Could this be the effects of passport scam that Uladi Mussa played? Is she married to Nigerians or DRC ?

  9. Re the first sentence, there is no death penalty in Honk Kong. Why does NT keep saying the the lady is facing death?

  10. In 2015, Davis Namaona was executed in Indonesia by the firing squad. I did not read such publicity. Can someone tell me why this case is special? And did you say the Malawi Office deletion attended the session? Abale! Hopefully we will do the same to other criminals outside Malawi.

      1. Mikasera Estina, which part of Malawi? HRRC ndi anzao atopa ndi matanyula afuna ameneyu!kkkkkkk Adzapita kwao ku DRC tu osati ku Malawi. Mtayeni ameneyo!

    1. Someone will fuck this lady as them are not guys so no need to rescue that fella in indonesia i hope you understand now.

  11. I think there’s more to this story than has been let out. For example, why the need for a translator? They speak English in Hong Kong (It was a British colony). Does it mean this Malawian woman is globetrotting all over the world without speaking English? Unless, of course, she is just some ignorant villager who has been human-trafficking.

  12. She is a criminal and let her be treated as such. Why giving her attention as if she has done something good for our Nation Malawi ???

  13. Let her rot right there damn it! ….. we gat lots of problems in our country that need urgent attention and not stupid drug traffickers who want easy money.

  14. At least she gets to see 2019! shes lucky SAR hong kong is a bit democratic if she were to be trailed in mainland china she would have been executed by now those communist dont listen to anybody and they take pride is executing foreigners just for Beijing to relax muscle

    1. we dont need drug traffickers even here in Malawi, it would have been good riddance if she was chopped there.

      1. Nigerians who from time to time Palm oil important people and law enforcers in this country have infiltrated our country big time and are using our young people as mules to do their bidding. If we love our country we should flush out all foreigners involved in crime and living in our country illegally starting with Nigerians but include Pakistans, Indians Burundi and and Rwandese. The next government should ensure this is done otherwise this country is now just another banana republic.
